This building used to house a lively social club called the Calcutta Club for many years. The club became defunct a few years ago, since when the building has slowly been sinking into decay. This eyesore is yet another important building, like the old post office [http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1057081 ], on the main shopping road in Tilbury which has been allowed to fall to pieces.
